    Crucial Survivor Pool decisions, ugh! What do I do???
    Pool that started Week 9... $100 entry, 677 people = $67.7K.

    Down to 51 people. Pick two teams a week.

    Already used NE, SEA, GB, DAL, NO, DET, BAL, BUF, PIT, AZ, ATL, TEN, CIN, NYG.

    Been thinking I need to fade the Browns game based on the sharp line move and general strategy... So at the moment I'm defaulted to KC and OAK.

    But FUUUUKKKKKK, I feel shitty....

        I'd go SD and OAK
        Cleveland isn't winning a game this year.

            I'm 15 weeks in and not feeling great. Have Hou, Was, Ten, SD, and want to be opposite the 28 remaining. 15K total.

                  I've tried all year and haven't gotten an upset all year hence 28 remaining of 675.

                    Oakland isn't winning IMO. Chargers will win and I think bears will get a win today too.

                      I'm leaning Tenn but I've needed Jax to upset the pool 3 or 4 times and they've been in position and lost every time. Would be a bitch if they pulled this one out and me out

                              677 is just for the Week 9 pool.

                              The Week 5 pool had 1,912.

                              The Main Pool that began Week 1 had 8,035. Yes, that's $803,500.00!! Lol! And it's CASH ONLY! Guy who runs it is in New York. PM me if you want more info for next year. Assuming this guy manages to keep doing this and steering clear of landmines.

                                Well first KC has to fukking win today. I don't expect this to be easy by any stretch.

                                If that does come to pass, then someone will prob initiate an email to the organizer to ask for a split, so he'll send something around and then all seven parties will have to agree.

                                Here's the sad part though. My personal entries for the main pool, week 5 pool, and week 9 pool got knocked out. THIS entry is the fun one I did with two of my coworkers for 33 a piece, lol. So if we split the 67.7K seven ways, I ain't getting 9.6K, I'm getting 3.2K. :-( I'm sure the other parties will want to split, but I'm not so sure it's worth it for us... depends on who everyone can pick next week, which I'll research. Although I also wouldn't mind the 3.2K (minus another 10% though because I think it's unwritten the guy takes his juice.)
